Abstract

This study examines whether the mindfulness facilitates the experience of meaning, the autonomous regulation of behavior, and the emotional well-being through an experimental study which induces the mindfulness state. The participants were 80 undergraduate students who had no previous training in mindfulness. It is found that the mindfulness group inducing open attention and awareness without judging shows higher experience of meaning, autonomous regulation, and emotional well-being, when compared with a group inducing goal-directed attention and awareness with judging, in a meaningful task condition. In addition to, the mindfulness group noticed the meaninglessness of the meaningless task as well as the meaningfulness of a meaningful task. Results indicate that the mindfulness facilitates the autonomous regulation and enhances the emotional well-being through experience of meaning.
